William Nemitoff talks to us about Curious Form, a local art, fabrication and design company in the Bywater in New Orleans. Like many other local businesses, Curious Form has pivoted to assist with COVID-19 related shortages by transforming our space to a PPE Face Shield production site. They are also taking this opportunity to employ laid off workers & those in need of income. To date they have donated a total of 1,200 face shields through crowd and community fundraising. The masks also display inspirational lines of poetry written by local poets on the front of the face shield. They also sell them to the public to raise money: https://curiousform.com.
